Back to School Notebooks

My kids are back in school in a couple of weeks. Along with buying new clothes comes school supplies. Although we haven't received their official school supply list, while in Target the other day I decided to pick up a few things I knew they would need.

My daughter prefers composition books for taking notes. I purchased a few for her to use, but decided to personalize them with scrapbook paper. I purchased a few other supplies(some I had on hand). Then I sealed each book with Mod Podge.

I've been hearing so much about washi tape lately and decided to give it a try. I used to the tape to decorate a few of the books with.

Washi tape is so easy to use. The possibilities are endless. You are only limited by your imagination!

Amazing! What a great idea. I think these would be perfect for journals too. Great gift idea!! Can't believe the kiddos here start Monday. So glad I have an extra week before we head off to college. Oh, and my daughter will NOT miss AP U.S. History. And, she is done with French...all 7 years of it!

Love these composition notebook makeovers! I always remember loving to write on new stationary or that first sheet of my new school notebook. With notebooks as cute as that, taking notes will be kinda fun. :-)

How fun Brandi! You have got to be one of the coolest moms and I'm not just saying that. I'll have to do creative stuff like this for Dally once she's school age. Her friends are going to be asking where she go her cool notebooks.

How stinkin' cute! Your daughter and all her friends will love these notebooks. As a former teacher, I thank you for making your child's education a priority. I'm sure she is successful due to your interest and efforts! Now I've got to get some of that Washi tape!

Hi Janine! Thanks so much for stopping by. I really appreciate your visit. The notebooks held up really well. My daughter used them the entire school year. She is now junior with different set of classes and asked me to make her a new set. I hope your daughter has a great school year.
